life and you have the recipe for a great scuba diving holiday.

with sandy beaches and alive with tropical life in the

numerous shipwrecks. Some of these are ancient wooden men
of war vessels. Antigua has the most developed diving industry
so the sites around it tend to be popular. As Barbuda less
developed, it offers largely unexplored waters and promises
a lot of shipwrecks.
Scuba Dive Sites
